speed overruns are subject to the Catalog of Fine of Road Traffic Regulations (StVO). Particularly not to be observed is the paragraph 23 StVO, which prohibits the use of radar warners and laser tapes in the vehicle. Blitzer apps on cell phones, on the other hand, are not punishable as long as they are not activated while driving. External radar warning that is ready for operation in the vehicle represent a criminal act, like News.de

Remscheid, the fifth largest city in the Bergisches Land, has a high volume of traffic, including by connecting to the federal highway A1. Both solid speed cameras and mobile speed controls are carried out here. Fixed speed camera locations in Remscheid include:

  • B229, Solinger Straße, direction of travel Remscheid: 30 km/h allowed
  • B229, from the direction A1: 50 km/h allowed

Since July 2023, an enforcement trailer in Remscheid has also been active, which can autonomously make speed measurements. The fines for speed overrun vary depending on the violation and depend on the owner of the vehicle. After identifying the holder, a hearing is sent, followed by a fine. In the event of doubts about the measurement accuracy, there is the possibility to appeal within two weeks. Occasionally, fines and points in Flensburg and driving bans, especially at high speed overruns (from 31 km/h in urban, 41 km/h out of town), threaten, as Busseldkatalog carried out.
